"Hit Me With Your Best Shot!" Photography Assignment - due Thurs, Feb 1 by noon

1948 photograph by Philipe Halsman of artist Salvador Dalí

Find THREE photographs that you find compelling (good, cool, interesting or whatever that word is for you) and embed them in your post. Your sources can be from anywhere online - magazines, news articles, blog, photography contests, art websites, artist websites or.... wherever you draw inspiration from.

The "rules" are this:

- Share one photograph that tells the story of a PERSON.

- Share one photograph that tells a story of a PLACE.

- The third photograph is a "wild card" and can be your favorite (classroom and public website appropriate) photograph of anything.

For EACH photograph share:
a.  a bit of CONTEXT: where did this image come from, who shot it and what you know about it, when it was taken, etc.
b. explain the CONTENT: what the story is that is being told... either from a caption or your interpretation
c. give your understanding of FORM: explain why you think this photo is good - what about it makes it interesting and effective?

Post is due by 12 pm on Thursday, February 1.
